2020년 10월 19일The pair will break down from an uptrend channel towards its previous low. A small recovery is better than no recovery at all. This is the scenario for the EUR/CZK pair.

The month-over-month report posted a 0.2% growth for the month of September against a decline of -0.3% in August. Meanwhile, the YoY report was still in the negative territory at -0.4% but slightly higher than August’s result of -0.5%. The result also beat analysts’ estimates of -0.7%.

This figure was the steepest decline in the said report since January 2019. On the other hand, the zero percent growth of the YoY report for CPI was the lowest result CPI YoY since March 2018.
